Grinaker-Lta decided to roll out the PSA Masbuwo programme to 8 of its labour only sub-contractors in Port Elizabeth after the successful conclusion, in November 2009, of a Pilot Programme in the W.Cape.

The programme commences with assessments of each of the participating businesses in March 2010. The approach followed is for the particpating businesses to attend a group session once a month which covers key small business development topics. These group sessions are followed by individual coaching of the businesses owners to implement outputs related to each module. The programme will conclude in November 2010 with the succesful businesses being awarded “Preferred Supplier Status” by Grinaker -Lta
